A bad first period cost the Dauhpin Kings in Winkler.
The Flyers came out fast and furious, scoring all the goals they would need in just the first period en route to a 3-1 win.
Brandon Holtby got a big piece of the first two shots, but some unlucky bounces resulted in the puck just landing over the Kings goal line.
Halfway through the second period Darren Gisti put the Kings on the board, putting his great shot to use, rifling a puck off the top bar and in.
The Kings are off to Selkirk Saturday to finish off a five game road swing.

Mackenzie Hunter opened the scoring for the Rangers, but it was all Eastman from there.
The Selects struck three times in the first, and twice in each the second and third.
Dustin Mozden responded for the Rangers after the 4th Selects goal. Dauphin's Mark Liwiski assisted on both Rangers goals.
The Rangers are at home again Saturday evening when they host the Winnipeg Thrashers. Game time is 7:30 at CUP.
